FLASH BACK: wastages; Buhari foreign trips.

-

On June 4, Buhari headed for Chad to hold talks with his Chadian counterpart, Idris Deby, as Nigeria and neighbouring countries discussed ways of finding lasting solutions to the lingering Boko Haram insurgency.
Two days after his trip from Niger and Chad, Mr. President left Abuja for Germany to attend the G-7 meeting, accompanied by a 20-man delegation including former Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, former Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Abdulrahman Dambazau (ret.), his personal photographer, Bayo Omoboriowo, and his cook.
He went to South Africa on June 15, to attend the African Union (AU) summit and on July 19, President Buhari left Abuja for the USA with a 33-man delegation on the invitation of President Barrack Obama of the United States.
He visited the US again in September for the UN General Assembly with a 22-man delegation after celebrating the Eid in his home town in Daura.
On August 1, President Buhari paid a one-day visit to Benin Republic with a sole agenda of discussing ways of extending the fight against Boko Haram insurgency.
On September 7, Buhari was in Ghana after which he left for France on September 14, on a three-day official visit following an invitation from his French counterpart Francois Hollande.

On October 27, he left Abuja for New Delhi, India, to take part in the 3rd Summit of the India-Africa Forum.
On November 22, he was in Tehran, Iran, to participate in the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) summit. He has since also visited Dubai in United Arab Emirate, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and United States for the Nuclear Summit.
He just came back from Beijing, China, where he reportedly went to seek for loan to fund the 2016 budget.
The weighty poser is; how have Nigerians benefitted from PMB’s numerous foreign trips?
